simple eg: negatively charged van de graaff generator top and a magnet. Put magnet near top. Would the magnetic field push the electrons of the charged surface to the sides and deeper into the metallic top?
The only force on a charge by a static magnetic field is when the charge is moving. It is given by the Loeentz force F:ace333 said:Why is there no effect on static charges since the electrons are the same
free electrons as in a conductor and on those there is of curse such a
strong effect induced on the same free electrons by a magnetic field. What is the difference since the conductors free electrons are just as static as the electrostatic charge and it is only their abundance that is different. So why can’t they be moved by a magnetic field?
Electrostatic magnetic-field interaction is a phenomenon in which electrically charged particles interact with magnetic fields. This interaction can cause movement or changes in the direction of the particles' motion.
Electrostatic magnetic-field interaction occurs when a charged particle moves through a magnetic field or when a charged particle is placed in a magnetic field. The magnetic field exerts a force on the charged particle, causing it to move or change direction.
Electrostatic magnetic-field interaction has many practical applications, including in devices such as electric motors, generators, and particle accelerators. It is also used in medical imaging techniques such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and in the production of electricity through hydropower.
The strength of electrostatic magnetic-field interaction depends on the strength of the magnetic field, the charge and mass of the particle, and the velocity of the particle. The distance between the particle and the magnetic field can also affect the strength of the interaction.
Electrostatic magnetic-field interaction is generally considered safe, as long as certain precautions are taken. Strong magnetic fields can interfere with medical devices, such as pacemakers, and can cause harm to individuals with certain medical conditions. It is important to follow safety guidelines and regulations when working with strong magnetic fields.
